- Rides with 10 or more excitement are usually pretty long, but they don't have to be. In this video we take a look at how short we can make a ride while keeping the excitement rating at 10 or higher.

A member of my Discord server (YoshiIsDead) has found a way to get an even shorter first lap on a triple launch coaster by using chain lifts as a booster. This wooden coaster is only 11 meters long (ignore the stats, I didn't bother building the rest of the ride): th-cam.com/video/ziQL4k3wVxY/w-d-xo.html. I wonder if there are any coaster types out there that can do this with an even shorter length.
Hey, I know that guy!
wow i seriously did not know that would be possible to do in openRCT make it when the train goes up the hill it gets boosted but not enough and guests get confused, and when the guests doesn't make it on the hill the train goes back to the station, going backwards, and when the hill on the opposite side of the ride, it gets boosted to further the speed, i like that idea, i don't know why i haven't though of this, lol. so much information. :)
I didn't know people is still playing RCT2!
ben je nederlands?
your videos are always 10 excitement
"Looping Coaster 1 looks too specifically engineered to manipulate the length rating for me."
I am dying hahahaha
When RCT AI becomes sentient
I want to go on something more thrilling than Looping Coaster 1.
Something about that sounds slightly obscene
"Shut it down; the peeps know."
Length: 12m
Highest Drop Height: 51m
Sounds about right!
cuz you drop without track. When you reach the bottom of the drop the coaster car gets set on the rail again.
This rollercoaster is out here traveling at over 4 meters / meter
Lmao
Non-Euclidean roller coaster
@@solsystem1342 holy shit I lost it so hard
"Tiny giga coaster is not exciting enough.", "Did you see the scenery?", "Thanks, this helps"
You don't get excited by reeds everywhere?
Of course the scenery makes a ride more exciting. It might be one of the most important things.
@@607 that's no different in real life! Well, a ride without scenery can be fun too, if it's in the dessert and has no scenery it's probably stille exciting. But in general terms scenery makes the ride cooler😝
@@joneinarmattiasvisser6113 Exactly.
Go to the Efteling or Disney Land if you don't believe that scenery can greatly add to excitement. ;) (I haven't been to Disney Land myself, but I've heard it uses it to great effect)
i love random pieces of track, paths that go though the track, water and reeds
Next up: What Is The Slowest Ride With 10 Nausea?
Finally someone who's interested in my rides!
holy shit I really want this video
That sounds really challenging. I hope Marcel takes a shot at it!
Um yes please!! I would love to see this video lol
A really long swinging suspended coaster maybe?
"you may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like!"
"Do you believe the sign that says '12 metres long' or your lying eyes?" - Marcel Vos, 2021
The way he just adds the stuff around the coaster randomly is really funny for me.
This is done by pausing the game, then building with cheats, then unpausing, and editing out all frames where the pause button is pressed. The voice overs seems to be in a second round of editing. This is actually an high amount of effort Marcel Vos puts into this
That's actually not how I did this. I first record my voice and then put video under it. Whenever new stuff appears a new videoclip starts where I have aligned the position of the coaster train so that it's a perfect transition. If you look at the entrance building you can see the text on it jumpcutting around. The clips are also recorded in reverse order with me removing one layer of stuff every time.
@@FerrybigGaming I meant the way the stuff is just around the track with no rhyme or reason. Not really the way they show up in the video.
@@lucasduque8289 If you mean the stat-boosting scenery, there is rhyme and reason. There are specific scenery stat-boosts and maximum number of points per specific boost. Marcel did a video about it.
@@CouchPotator I know what it does, I play the game too. I mean aesthetically there is no rhyme or reason, christ how hard is it for people to understand.
Your videos are so relaxing to me, Marcel, because they are so disconnected from anything I do in my daily life xD For 16 minutes, I get reminded that someone in Groningen is busy building the 'shortest' rollercoaster and probably laughing to himself because he managed to trick the game into thinking that the last one is only 12 meters long xD
Go Grunn!!..... (i'm not from Groningen but still :) )
Oh I didn’t know Marcel was from Groningen! The source of the best dark beers in the world!
@@gormster I am not really from Groningen. I was born and raised in Drenthe and now live in Groningen.
I feel the same, i never even played RCT 2, but the videos are just genuinely fun and interesting to watch :D
I love the decorative towers with trash cans and benches on top, lol.
Probably from a script to spam those for all the roads in the park.
@@henke37 Correct. I found the park a bit dull for the footage so I quickly used the plugin I have for that to give the shot more life, with the unintended consequence of having benches on the headchopper paths too.
What is the shortest coaster with 10 excitement?
Marcel: How much cheese do you want?
Answer: Yes :)
I love the interstitial shots of your other parks. They are so full and colourful. I would love an hour long video of just long shots of your parks, fading from one to the next, with calming music. Most relaxing thing
Like on the main menu of the original games. Sometimes I would just sit there and watch the entire montage before even starting a scenario
I was thinking the same thing. I would love to see a tour of some of these parks in a livestream.

Guest: Meh
_4 loop coaster surrounded by half of Chernobyl_
Guest: *Heavy breathing*
This comment is underappreciated
wouldn't recomend it, don't want radioactive dust in your lungs.
@@blackdragonxtra The heavy breathing is, because they are trying to breathe the uranium out of their lungs.
About 20 Years ago, RCT1 was the first game i really got addicted to (before i would play continuously for like 30 minutes max, my first RCT session was 6 hours).
Today i can watch Marcel Vos talk about details of that game i never knew or thought about.
Hope RCT is still somewhat relevant in another 20 years.
You are my favorite TH-camr. Please know you have huge love and appreciation coming your way from Seattle 😊
Same, with all the same sentiments coming from Spokane, which is Seattle's country cousin to the east lol
I can’t imagine how long it must have taken to figure this stuff out, especially the multiple launch technique. Thanks for your dedication so that we can still learn more cool things about this 20-year-old game.
just seeing "12 meters" over that extremely long coaster is funny asf
Hi Marcel, I came up with 3 video ideas, and maybe you could use them once;
1. Making the longest filled queueline for a ride possible
2. Building a park while focusing on the decoration instead of passing the goal as a challenge
3. Making a part two of “the 42 tips for beginners” video
I’d would love to see those! Keep up the great work :)
Good ideas!! And how about: 4. Building an entire park underground. If anyone can do that, it's Marcel
@@No19Name94 Building underground isn't that difficult.
Quite happy that you had an upload today. It's been a very rough day for me personally (and definitely for quite a lot of people given the significance of what happened) so I'm really just trying to let my emotions run through me and show some appreciation for things that make me happier during these bad days. Your content does help me a lot to get through it all, don't know why that's the case but I do feel the need to express some gratitude for that. Thank you :)
What happened?
@@bladactania Yeah just searched the news because I haven't heard about anything too
@@Filipolis @Lee Blake Kentaro Miura, creator of Berserk, has died. While I haven't read it myself, it still felt awful to me because of how significant of a mangaka he was. Legit hard to deal with, but I'm feeling better rn at least.
Grief is a strong thing even if it's not inherently someone close to you.
I hope you'll be feeling better soon! It's good to keep enjoying the things you like, so don't give up on that
The transitions around 3:10 were seamless, nicely done
I just come here for your "Hello everyone" in your awesome dutch accent 👌🏻
would be cool to see what the shortest in both of these categories would be if you weren't allowed to use bonuses from stuff other than the ride (scenery, path etc.). could also be cool to have a category for "smallest ride footprint", like what's the fewest number of tiles you can take up while still reaching 10 excitement
this is what I was hoping for. Small footprint, nekkid coasters without scenery.
I wanna see a cursed park collab between Marcel and Vargskelethor Joel
Imagine a park swap, where they build half their park, then trade to continue building off of the other's park.
Marcel Vos, the mad Roller Coaster scientist!
I remember playing RCT2 back in 2005, and I had built a really small loop coaster with a bit of scenery and a few very small hills, and it was the best performing attraction at the park. It baffled my young mind. Sick as hell to peel back the curtain on this game 15 years later.
I feel like there's one more question to ask: what's the shortest 10+ excitement coaster you can use as a prebuilt design? That is, it would need to get 10 excitement using only bonuses for decorations you can save with the ride design, like paths and scenery pieces, and can't count on bonuses like going underground or interacting with other rides.
i would prefer if it was only bare coaster
and measured "as a reasonable person would do "
Never been this early to one of Marcel's videos
So?
Same. It's nice.
Never change, you number-crunching maniac!
I love how you made both actually satisfying answers to the question of making the shortest or smallest coaster with 10 excitement, and then manipulated the statistics after that.
I like that you've made coasters for every possible interpretation of this category. It shows that you've been very thorough and have no intention of trying to cheat! Love it!
Intamin and Cedar Point build Top Thrill Dragster (c. 2003 colorized)
Great to hear your voice again! I'm gonna keep casting my vote for a video explaining why double-wide paths are bad when supposedly RCT2 fixed whatever made it detrimental in the first installment. Thanks a lot!
9:10 "and we have JUST enough speed to make it over the hill" **car fails to make it over the hill**
I love how you transformed RCT into science. Keep up the good work!
Amazing once again :) I love how you explain all these mechanics and the journey towards the absurd result!
Nice to see you again Marcel, really enjoyed seeing you in the RCT documentary.
You never cease to amaze me with your creativity and genius for this game. The relaxed yet excited way you showcase your challenges makes it so interesting.
I never miss a video from you, keep enjoying what you do.
This man's life is Roller Coaster Tycoon and I'm taking a journey with him.
Great content again Marcel! I always look forward to your videos of my childhood favorite game!
Hello everyone!
Welcome to another video.
@@FranklinAshe Today we are gonna take a look at...
Loving these videos, I just got back into RCT2. Was so obsessed with this game growing up, feels like home to be back listening to the music and sounds again.
Thanks for investigating all the different categories!
I like the structure of the video. :)
Marcel, The best QA tester the world has ever seen.
Love the amount of effort you put into this kind of video. Thanks Marcel
That was great! I love these, and actually a design i like, that giga coaster is cute, i don't often add them for the size of them- i love compact coasters that aren't too messy in supports. Also seems like decent throughput.
Hey Marcel Vos!
I just wanted to say that I think I've made the shortest ride (time wise) in RCT ever, though it only has I think about 5 or 7 excitement, and I believe about 6, 7 or 8 intensity.
I was in the RCT1 scenario "Vertigo Views" And I built an Inverted Coaster. It does a half-loop, a twist, and then another half loop. I gave it Christmas themed Colors and it's called "Christmas in July". It launches at 60 miles per hour, and it's ride time is only 3 seconds.
I really enjoyed how you covered all bases. Great video!
Keep up the good content. Your videos and streams are always a highlight 🤘
I like the way you go in-depth for these things!
9:50
Imagine this as a real-life coaster:
"Half the thrill is knowing you may drop backwards instead of passing the hill!"
This video was truly amazing, well done!
I played all the RCT games since the beginning. I'm 27. I thought I knew everything within the game. But since I accidentally discovered this channel, I have learned a lot. And I thought I was the best of the best... ha!
I love your videos. Truely an amazing community as well
Inspired by your observation in the video, we should start a campaign to rename it the "Over Powered Vertical Coaster"
Wow, nice tricks.
I wonder what would be the cheapest coaster whit 10+ excitement too (Whit the price of scenery and everything else added)
"What is the cheapest coaster with over 10 excitement in RCT2?" th-cam.com/video/Npu07oeWw8w/w-d-xo.html
from December 2019. Don't know if it needs an update though.
@@LordZarano Thanks
this video was incredible. tons of information, gimmicks, game mechanics, everything.
Seeing all your other coaster designs is so trippy and relaxing.
The end is satisfying in a troll sort of way. Delightfully devilish
This is one of my favorite videos you've done.
Another great video, thank you!
I love you explaining things!
Playing this game as a kid I would have never expected 10 years later to watch extended technical analysis about shortest possible coasters at 2am while I need to study/sleep lol.
Another banger of a video. Thanks Marcel
Thanks for the great video!
I've got one: The shortest ride with 10 excitement without using external bonuses. Bonus: The shortest ride with 10 excitement without external bonuses that only does 1 lap.
"shortest coaster is this rather long one"
makes perfect sense to RCT number cruncher
Marcel throwing shade at the Heartline Twister will never get old.
Cool video! I was hoping on coasters without the extra stats from path, sync, deco and coaster parts. I hope you make a followup video with those restrictions in mind :)
I don't even play the game but I've been binge watching these videos.
Either something is wrong with me or these videos are just too damn entertaining !!
I love how you make it a point to pick on hardline coasters in nearly every single video.
Another great vid.
Next on is shortest with high nausea rating :P
greetings from Maastricht, another great AI town
I know this is a bit off topic for the video, but I was able to make a miniature railroad with an excitement of around 10.5 in OpenRCT2 using a powered launch of around 200mph, two laps, and a track length of around 3k feet. Plus scenery, but it took some balancing to achieve this. It's funny how the mechanics of some rides work when they are "stress tested"
ngl I was 100% a zoo tycoon kid, not rct, but I have binge watched almost every single video on this channel I think. it's just great to listen to someone passionate about what they're talking about even if it's something I would otherwise have never thought I'd have any interest in learning about. (doesn't hurt Marcel has one heck of a soothing voice lol :p)
these video's are absolute gold.
14:08 I know that this isn’t the subject of the video, but this ride looks like it would be SO FUN to ride in a real park!!!!
Great coaster from the outro. xD
What a great Video! Really enjoyed this you one, you make such great content :)
I'd really be interested in what the highest achieveable excitement rating in (Open)RCT might be. How high can it go? And I'd love to see a "ride rating explained" video. Cheers! :)
The highest achievable excitement rating is 327.67: th-cam.com/video/oVKAD0jCR-M/w-d-xo.html
I do plan on making a video about the excitement rating at some point (I've done intensity already), but it's quite a big topic.
I barely ever played thai game, I'm a Zoo Tycoon guy, but seeing someone optimize a game like that is always wonderful
leuke video :)
Used to play this a lot
Love the mathematical art in your builds
Bro im drunk right now which is prob why im typing this, but i want u to know that ive never played rtc2 but your videos are 10/10 and you've made me actually want to consider picking up the game.
Actually 10/10 content, I watched you first bc you provided technical explanations of obscure shit which is smth im rly into, now i just watch you bc you're epic.
you have very relaxing commentary
Move over Intamin! We have 'giga coaster loop in tulip field 1'!
You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
3:09 👏 for the amount of work (and shots) in/for this bit
I love this guy he made a so many rct videos now i can made a perfect park thank you :) made more videos
You really are a boss at this game
Great video :D
bit off topic. But i had a newgen player on Football Manager 2016 called Marcel Vos and he was one of the best striker's on the planet.
Cheers for that mate
I never played any RCT but I found this video fascinating.
Very funny. I think in terms of throughput the shortest time makes the most sense.
The real coaster Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point is being converted from a hydraulic launch coaster into a triple launch coaster. it's being redesigned so it doesn't make it over the top hat on the initial launch, goes backwards, launched up a vertical spike, and then launched back towards the top hat and makes it over.
btw, thank you for changing the way you say numbers, I have noticed and appreciate the change - just didn't want to say anything to someone who isn't a native English speaker.
Very cool video! I'd be interested in the same challenge but *without* decorations.
New Marcel Vos video!
The ending is hilarious haha
i absolutely love your videos
step one: count in binary
step two: build a merry go round
congratulations you now have a ride with more than 10 excitement
I love 2 watch u video even if i do not play RCT anymore XD
Well done!
